    Did Jesus say that we are supposed to attend church?

    Oh goodness Sheepdog.....In regard to your theory that “no mere man is in charge of anything”Scripture (Hebrews 13:17, John 20:23, Acts 20:28, 1 Timothy 5:17, 1 Timothy 3, Titus 1:9 etc etc) says completely OPPOSITE of what you believe. Does that not concern you when the Bible teaches OPPOSITE...

    Did Jesus say that we are supposed to attend church?

    Hi FHII, I agree with your “bottom line”. I only wish @An Apologetic Sheepdog would be wise enough to consider your argument for a “man made church”. What I don’t think he understands is that he has made himself a church. A church of one! He is in charge of Scripture interpretation which...

    Did Jesus say that we are supposed to attend church?

    Hi Sheepdog, I will admit you didn’t flat out say that however you have implied it when you said that denominational or institutional churches have no authority and only screw things up and are a problem. The Church is not a man made organization. According to Scripture The Church, which is...

    YOU, a man, has led sheep to the truth and removed them from the teeth of the wolf but men of a church lead sheep away from the truth and to the teeth of the wolf??????????????????????? Hmmmm......Fascinating. Why are YOU better then the men of any church?

    Thanks Ronald. Soooo YOU know what truths The Church got right and which ones they didn't? YOU know the false doctrines all churches have been infected with in Christendom? You stand on Scripture....not a churches opinion of Scripture. The Catholics, Episcepalions and Baptist have false...

    You acknowledge YOUR validity and YOUR authority. Not others validity and authority. True or not? You think YOU are best to lead sheep to the truth....not an institution.

    Oh, I see. YOU, a man, have figured out but the men of The Catholic Church don't? How does that work?

    Thanks Ronald, You have been learning for 47 years but The Church has been teaching for 2,000 years. The Church has it figured out. You should listen to it. Also, why not go to a person who has been learning for 65 years? After all, they would seem to know more truth than you based on your...

    Really? At what church?

    Did Jesus say that we are supposed to attend church?

    This is VERY painful...Have I not made that clear enough?

    Hi Ronald, What is their to learn? Christianity has been around for 2,000 years. Do you think you are going to come up with an original thought (interpretation of Scripture) that no one else has over the last 2,000 years? If you do come up with a original thought that is sound doctrine why...

    Hi, Do you hate what others teach...or just what the pope (The Church) teaches? Curious Mary

    Did Jesus say that we are supposed to attend church?

    I have seriously considered it AND I appreciate your kinder tone :rolleyes: Of course Jesus and the Apostles were in the minority of the general population. It was a new teaching that no one had ever heard so they were starting with 12 and increasing the numbers of converts. In time people...

    Did Jesus say that we are supposed to attend church?

    Oh goodness.....you have lost track of the conversation. Your theory is that each individual person can read Scripture and decide for themselves how it applies to them because they know themselves better than anyone else knows them. This is painful....:(

    Did Jesus say that we are supposed to attend church?

    YOU have decided that I am in a mire. There are 1.2 billion Catholics in the world and millions of Protestants that agree with some Catholic teachings. You are in the minority with your teachings. Does that concern you?

    Did Jesus say that we are supposed to attend church?

    Your name is An apologetic sheepdog. An apologist is a person who offers an argument in defense of something controversial. A sheepdog guards sheep. With that said you liken yourself to a person who defends Christianity or the bible like a sheepdog would guard or keep sheep from harm. The sheep...

    Did Jesus say that we are supposed to attend church?

    The opposite of hate is love. Since you don't love what The Church teaches then that means you hate it. Perhaps chastise isn't the right word for your pointing out that The Church was chaining bibles. When you said that criticism of The Church goes deeper than the "...Catholic churches simply...
